Thanks blurk - that's what happens when I type too fast. (Although in some ways I think it would be quite a success if we could succeed from the rest of the state) How ironic, given my small grammatical hissy fit over in the cow thread. It just goes to show you: people in glass houses shouldn't get stoned.

Marfie - Very good. We could expand the whole Chippendales/charity thing and have them work for such causes as footwear for homeless people (C*cks for Socks), promotion of animal dental health (Wangs for Fangs), and some sort of charity directed toward residents of Appalachia (D*cks for Hicks).

My yard is the designated hang-out for all the little kitty-spawn from the neighborhood, as all the little dog-spawn can't get inside the fence. Right now [ISIANMTU] I have a Boyz from Brazil convention out back [buncha Hitler kittens]. I call the birdbath 'Birkenau.'

I let my pet out of the house anytime he wants to go. (He's been neutered, of course) He always comes back home. I had rather see him out walking around than sitting in his Lazy Boy watching the Texas Rangers on T.V. He is a baseball addict from 'way back.(my husband, not my dog)

As one who works with the North Texas Basset Hound Rescue, I think I can safely say that these people don't care where the money comes from as long as they get more funding for spay and neuter programs. I sure do want one of those Hooters T-Shirts though!!

The active word, being "all." Just most ain't enough. The little Hittler kittys [black spots under the nose] run and hide under the porch when I try to sneak out with the camera, but they are the progeny of the 1 or two adults that are all it takes. 1 or two? Did I just say that? What a dummy! To hell with it, I'm going to Hoooters.

Gee, if only I could think of an event to raise money for my favorite charities--taking care of a precious part of America's heritage, the foot lockers used by so many servicemen and women throughout our country's noble military history. Only nothing rhymes with "lockers." Sigh.

I have to say this about LA and SoCal. On Puritanism vs. Prurientism, it seems to know no differentiatioin, subtle or otherwise. When Hooters came out here to Newport Beach, I don't think anyone knew what to think about it. The stigma of going there seemed to be like one was going to a strip club. Just no sensible middle ground.

Then the new Hooters in Burbank had a scandle where the manager was taping waitress candidates getting dressed and undressed. So that didn't help much. And then Hooters was advertising on the biggest local Sports Talk show, and hosting events for them. One of the guys who does the show is former LA Laker great and future Prime Minister of the Bahamas Mychal Thompson. And he was all uptight about the Hooters thing, not even going to their live events there.

For those of you Southeast people who watched Hooters sprout up in your region, here's how to think of California. San Francisco Bay Area could never have a Hooters, period. San Diego has a couple I think, one right on the beach a few miles north of the airport. And it isn't creepy or seen as creepy. LA/Orange County has a few, but the people are just learning what to make of them. Again, they're not strip clubs, but the idea of going to Hooters with the family instead of Chuck E Cheese doesn't wash. Go outside California, and everyone loves Hooters. Heck, it is almost the most family-friendly of all the Vegas Hotel/Casinos. Whoda thunk? Everyone likes it in Denver.
